00:00 [MUSIC - "I'M NOT GOING TO DIE"]
00:03 Isn't truth supposed to set you free?
00:09 Why do I feel so weighed down by it?
00:13 If I could show them everything I've seen,
00:17 open their eyes to all the lies then,
00:19 would they change their minds like I did?
00:21 But when I speak, they tell me sit down.
00:25 But how can I when I've already started running?
00:30 Oh, this is where we've been, but it's not where we belong.
00:34 And I may be young, but I know I'm not wrong.
00:42 So I look up at the stars to guide me and throw caution
00:48 to every warning sign.
00:50 If knowing what it could be is what drives me,
00:54 then let me be the first to stand in line.
00:58 So I make this a wish to have something
01:04 more for us than this.
01:06 So I make this a wish to have something
01:12 more for us than this.
01:14 [MUSIC - "I'M NOT GOING TO DIE"]
01:18 Hey, hey, more than this.
01:26 Oh, oh, oh.
01:31 I never knew I needed room to grow.
01:35 Yeah, I did what I was told when someone told me no.
01:39 Now I've got all of this freedom in my bones,
01:42 but I still got the lid on so it doesn't overflow.
01:46 'Cause I've got reservations and hesitations
01:49 on where I should even begin.
01:52 I'm fast dipping my toes in, but I'm not-- no,
01:55 I'm not fast diving in.
01:57 If I could just be pointed at any given direction on where
02:00 to go and what to do.
02:02 My legs are shaking, but my head's not high.
02:05 That's the way you always taught me to.
02:13 So I look up at the stars to guide me and throw
02:18 caution to every warning sign.
02:21 I'm sure there will be challenges that find me,
02:25 but I can take them on one at a time.
02:30 So I make this a wish to have something
02:35 more for us than this.
02:38 So I make this a wish to have something more for us than this.
02:45 Hey, hey, hey, hey.
02:51 Hey, hey, hey, hey.
02:53 Ah, ah.
02:55 More than this.
02:57 Oh, oh, oh, oh.
03:04 So I make this a wish to have something
03:09 more for us than this.
